“Down the drain”; a phrase we often use for a variety of reasons that all relate to throwing something away; although the origins come from allowing liquids to flow away from us; with the implication that these are unwanted, or waste, liquids; we also use the analogy when “pouring money down the drain” or similar. Perhaps the emphasis is on the “pouring” it away quickly as though it were waste?
Where’s It Go?
Whether the liquids are flushing out of a toilet bowl; draining away from our kitchen sink, shower stall or wash basin; we push a flush; pull a plug and the “stuff” disappears as though by magic; likewise, when it rains, all that surplus water simply gets gobbled up down our surface water drainage. If we live in a town or city apartment; all we really need to know is that someone takes care of all this waste water once we have thrown it out and; should something go wrong within our apartment; we call for the “super” to fix it; for the city dweller, Drain Service On Long Island is “taken care of” (all we have to do is pay our taxes, etc).
However, a good thing about Long Island is that it provides opportunities for you to work in the big city but live in your own house and lot out in the countryside. However, should you choose to do this; a word of warning; you will not be cut off from modern amenities; but, you will have to be a lot more responsible for many things that you took for granted in the city. Drainage being one of them; there will not be much by way of municipal drains serving your lot in the countryside and there will not be a building superintendent to “fix” things for you – it is all down to you.
Your Three Personalized Drainage Systems
You will require at least 3 separate drainage systems on your country property.
- Surface and other run-off drainage
- Domestic “used” water drainage
- Human waste (sewerage) drainage
Water and other waste going down these drains will require some treatment before you will be allowed to release it into the local ground water. However, your systems will be prone to blockage by solids flowing in with the water and it will be down to you to keep the flow going. This is where it becomes essential that you know how to obtain Drain Service On Long Island; you will need this for regular maintenance and, possibly, for emergency call out.
